Jasper County Democrat, Volume 13, Number 61, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 9 November 1910 — Suit Case Polish. [ARTICLE]

Suit Case Polish.

Some persons are surprised when they go.to pack their suit cases for a journey to find them shabby or. spotted. the leather dry and cracked or covered with greenish mold. They have been stored away either too near furnaces and steam pipes or in damp cellars. All leather goods, chair seats, book covers, traveling bags, etc., must have consideration if they are to retain a fresh, attractive appearance. Shoes are preserved by the dressing on the' leather. Book covers of leather or calf which are beginning to grow dry and brittle should be rubbed with avery small quantity of vaseline. If merely shabby and spotted they should be rubbed with well beatea white of egg, as should chair seats and all other leather articles, with the exception of sole leather suit cases, which are best cleaned by using ordinary russet shoe polish.
